ABSTRACT:
A ball game method and apparatus for visually connecting a highly reflective ball to the player's eye by transmitting light outwardly toward the ball and reflecting light off the ball back toward the player's eyes. A small reflecting angle is maintained between the transmitted light beam and the reflective light beam at the ball for tracking purposes. The apparatus includes the highly reflective ball and a lighting means connected to or adjacent a player's head for maintaining the small reflecting angle. The lighting means provides an electromagnetic output wave of such intensity that it reflects off the ball to provide a reflected return wave that is visible in the dark to the player transmitting the output wave and tracking the ball. The lighting means may be connected to the player's head for movement in relation to the moving ball.
